The AM12U X-10 UK Appliance module appliance module is a receiver unit that works as a remote controlled switch or relay. The connected load can be used at any wall sockets in the house. The appliance module can switch incandescent lamps up to 500W, appliances with electric motors up to 250W, halogen floor lamps with foot dimmer up to 500W or resistive loads of up to 16A (13A fuse fitted). As the X-10 switch is simply inserted into wall sockets like an ordinary plug, there is no installation to be carried out. Just set the wheels on the front to the desired device address (eg. G7) and note this address down.
The load connected to the switch module can still be controlled locally by its own switch, but don't forget to leave the local switch in the "ON" position, as otherwise the load cannot be controlled by an X-10 controller. Switch the load off by remote control. The unit responds to "standard" X-10 commands. ie. All-Units-Off, On and Off.
Typical Applications
This unit is a general purpose unit for adding X-10 control to appliances and lamps.
